Location

The pretty coastal village of Port Gaverne lies along one of the most rugged stretches of North Cornwall coastline that runs between the Camel Estuary at Rock right the way up to Trebarwith Strand. The village consists of a small and picturesque collection of cottages and houses clustered around an idyllic cove. At low tide there is a small, sheltered, sandy beach with an abundance of rock pools and is one of the safest beaches in North Cornwall, perfect for swimming, paddleboarding and kayaking. The Rockies sits in a peaceful spot with magnificent, elevated views located just a short walk from neighbouring Port Isaac - a thriving and busy fishing village which is internationally renowned for its association with the television series ‘Doc Martin’. The village offers a wide range of facilities including primary school, doctor’s surgery, shops, pubs, hotels and restaurants including two of Nathan Outlaw's establishments where he holds three Michelin stars.
